Safety and Environment

BNNT (Boron Nitride Nanotubes) are nanomaterials. All handling, processing, shipping, receiving and transportation of the material must meet all U.S. Department of Transportation and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations as well as end user country requirements as applicable.

From discussions with the U.S. EPA, BNNT should be treated as nanomaterials in an R&D phase, i.e. no special approvals are required. Customers should employ safety processes appropriate for born nitride and similar to what would be used for carbon nanotubes.

A BNNT Material Safety Data Sheet will be provided with all orders. Customers outside of the U.S. should check with their country specific safety and environmental requirements for working with novel nanomaterials.
